Dubai Chocolate Recipe Calculator
Choose how many bars you want to make and the calculator scales the core chocolate, pistachio cream, kataifi and butter quantities instantly.
These are practical starting ratios, not the proprietary formula of any commercial brand. Mould size and filling thickness change the amount required.
How the calculator works
The default batch is four bars. Each additional bar scales the same ratio as our classic recipe: 100 g chocolate, 37.5 g pistachio cream, 20 g kataifi and 5 g unsalted butter. If your mould is unusually deep, make a small test batch first.
Adjusting the filling
If the mixture feels loose, add a little more cooled toasted kataifi. If it feels too stiff, loosen it with a small amount of pistachio cream; add tahini only if you specifically want a sesame note. The filling should hold its shape rather than flow like sauce.
